DRIVERS CASEY CURRIE AND CHUCK DEMPSEY
READY FOR ROUND 5 AND 6 OF
CHAMPIONSHIP OFF-ROAD RACING (CORR)
IN CHULA VISTA
RENO, NV - Speed Technologies, one of the largest and
foremost off-road race teams in the United States and Mexico, is gearing up
for rounds five and six of the popular CORR series (Championship Off Road
Racing) taking place at Chula Vista in San Diego County. Casey Currie and
Chuck Dempsey will be competing this upcoming weekend, both drivers hoping
to take home a podium finish for Speed Technologies.
"Speed Technologies continues to move forward in the CORR series and we're
feeling more and more comfortable each week," said team owner and racer John
Harrah.
Dempsey races his Nissan Pro-Lite truck under the Speed Technologies
banner as part of Casey Currie's Bully Dog Team. Curry, who manages and
runs his own full-time CORR team, is co-sponsored by Speed Technologies and
races under the Bully Dog banner.
"I feel really comfortable now," said Curry. "We have been working really
hard over the five week break to get the truck dialed in. The team is
bonding and Speed Technologies is really making things happen."
This is Dempsey's first year racing CORR, but he's well-known in desert
racing circles and in 2005 took home a first place motorcycle finish in the
Baja 500. Curry has been competing in the off road and motorcycle circuit
for over six years. In 2005 Curry raced the SuperTT series in Southern
California, and after advancing to the AMA professional SuperMoto series he
placed fifth in the nation.
